What was really scary is that he was unable to see that breaking the Constitution was a problem because they “needed to” and he consulted with other government folks, so it must be OK. The Rabbis need to sue his ass off.

Murphy admitted that his decision to stop public gatherings is ‘above his paygrade’, when Tucker asked him about our Bill of Rights.

This arrogant Gov should have lawsuits flying at him, ASAP, for this.

Tucker took him apart in a slow, respectful and deliberate manner. Murphy had no clue that he was being dissected. I don’t think he has a clue about what Tucker did to him even now. But by tomorrow, when this interview goes viral, Murphy’s team will understand the damage this guy did to himself.

I would be willing to bet dollars to donuts that this is the first non-friendly channel Murphy has been on for an interview. I give them credit for putting him out there, But I don’t think they knew what he was up against.

Here’s the problem as I’ve presented it before ...

It’s one thing for a religious leader or institution to stand up on principle and conduct these religious services in open defiance of the government. I would actually commend this. But would also say that any religious leader who makes a stand like this while he’s got a congregation filled with Medicaid and Medicare recipients is a charlatan and a fraud. This is an important distinction between (for example) the Amish and a Baptist church in Harlem or a Hasidic synagogue in Lakewood.

It reminds me -- rather fondly -- of an exchange between Bobby Kennedy and Ronald Reagan on an ABC "Town Hall" news show in 1968. Reagan took Kennedy apart.

After the cameras were turned off, Bobby turned to one of his campaign aides and said, "Who the f*** got me into this?

I think they are just testing the system for the last days when they round up believers in Christ left behind.

Saw it. Incredible that he laughs and said he never thought of Bill of Rights because it’s above his pay grade. Governor, meet US CODE 42, 1983.

That guy is a POS. Tucker did a masterful job of taking him apart while smiling. I have recently gained a new respect for Tucker.

Would not answer what gives him the authority to strip rights from the people. Says it's above his pay grade?? Then finally at the very end, he answered the question. What is the answer? Same answer as global warming: SILENCE! Yeah, I know, he said SCIENCE! but that's not what he meant.

Carlson asked Murphy if he had considered the First Amendment when making his decision. Murphy said that he wasn't thinking about the Bill of Rights and that that question was above his pay grade.

No, Governor, that is PRECISELY your pay grade! That is at the FOREFRONT of your pay grade!
